==Converting From Mozilla Thunderbird to Sieve==
If you use Mozilla (eg Thunderbird) and have existing rules created, then they can be converted in to Sieve
Here are some step by step instruction on moving the filters over:
#Open your msgFilterRules.dat file in a text editor (notepad, gedit etc)
##This file will be found in your 'Local directory', which can be found in Account Settings - Server Setting - look for the 'Local directory' box at the bottom.
#Copy and paste the text in to the [http://wiki.aaisp.org.uk/mozilla2sieve.html converter]
#Install the ThunderBird ManageSieve Addon:
##Check that there are not any errors reported, then click Save.
##Close the tab with the script, and you'll be returned to the SieveFilters tab
##
##Close that tab
#Disable the original Thunderbird filters:
##Either by closing Thunderbird and renaming the msgFilterRules.dat to something else (eg msgFilterRules.dat.old) or by unticking all the tick boxes under Tools - Message Filters.
#You can then view the filters via Roundcube webmail, which is easier to edit as it's more of a GUI editor rather than than a straight script editor like the Thuinderbird addon is.
